    In the right system Troy Daniels would average 16 points a game as a 6th man of the year candidate

    Yes, it's called "play harder."

    not necessarily, you won't see Howard sit out

    it is just pointless having real opinions until the season starts

    You're right. I forgot we lost Lin too as a playmaker. So we lost two playmakers and replaced them with who again? Yep, I don't think this team is a top 4 WC team anymore. Not unless DM do the impossible can come up with a out of nowhere trade.

    This ^^^^^

    It's been driving me crazy since last season. Dwight is rarely able to make a quick move into the lane because Bev (or another backcourt player) is often slashing into the lane immediately after dumping the ball down to him.

    It gives post defenders and weak side guards time to setup and disrupt Dwight's drop step, baseline move -or- post up dribble into his jump hook.

    So many TOs were caused in this way, especially during the Portland series. :rolleyes:

    no he wouldn't, not if he can't create his own plays consistently

    we won't have a real idea about this team until the 4thQ on tuesday. but so far this preseason, the play on the floor has looked like dog poo.

    Jones doesn't look like he's playing hard to me. It looks to me like he's taking it a little easy like a veteran would in preseason. Like he's not worried about losing his spot as a starter.

    I'm sure MilkHair is reserving all the plays for the regular season.

    Can anyone else hear a conversation going on during the half that we're not meant to?

    Kostas is a sneaky good interior defender for a perimeter guy.
